:::::::: I noticed that the last change introduced a "cross product" symbol/glyph, but it does not render correctly (under Firefox Aurora or MS Internet Explorer). This has to do with the 3rd (and last example) in the task's preamble. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 18:42, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::: You could use the &<nowiki>times;</nowiki> symbol, it's not quite a large at the cross-product glyph, but it's more accurate. There is a similar character ⨯ at U+2A2F, but this is not always considered identical to U+00D7, as U+2A2F is intended to ''explicitly'' denote the [[cross product]] of two vectors (last sentence as quoted in full from Wiki: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_sign Multiplication sign]). I like the expression (for the exponentiation) 100<sup>2000</sup> or 100<sup>2,000</sup> better though. I.E.: X=2×100<sup>2,000</sup> or, for ease of reading: <big> X=2×100<sup>2,000</sup> </big> -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 19:30, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
::::::::: It displays properly in Internet Explorer on my Windows tablet. Should we go back to: "X=2*100^2000"? [[User:Zelah|Zelah]] ([[User talk:Zelah|talk]]) 18:52, 16 May 2016 (UTC)▼

: The version of Perl 6 on IDEOne is ancient, pre-pre-alpha. For what it is worth, all that needs to change to make it work there is to expand the unicode sequence operator (…) in line 10 to its ASCII equivalent (...). See https://ideone.com/dUbfhi with the change applied. --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 00:39, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
